I developed voice / sound generated Art. It reacts to the human voice. It reacts to sounds. It creates very abrupt graphic animated visuals. What is magical about it, is the size it holds in a space. The environment lives and is reactive to what is going on. It is a way of visualizing sound and the human voice.
My objectives with Voice Generated Graphics Interactive Projection Art:
– Performance Art
– Live Musical / Theatrical Performances
– Festivals
– Clubs / Tasteful Parties
– Interactive Rooms
– Galleries
– Museums
– Public Spaces
– Urban Development
– Retail
– Events
– Conventions
– Anywhere where humans interact
I create an infinite amount of composition by just speaking. The Future is Now.
Remember the days of creating vector art using a software? Well those days are over when you start creating graphics with your voice.
I want to create interactive installations or displayed on huge led screens for Music Festivals and Clubs with a cutting-edge. If you know anyone who may be interested, please send them this link and my portfolio page: willpowerstudios.com/portfolio
It was created at NUMA in Paris, a co-working startup space. They have an amazing 3 projector setup, for presentation and conferences. Working with Hackerloop made it possible for me to create my art utilizing their space. It made me so happy, thankful, and grateful.

ASCENSION: An Interactive Installation
----------------
The Project
Willpower (William Ismael) + Carrie Mae Rose collaborate in the duo FLUID THUNDER for the interactive projection mapping of the tetrahedron winged computational fashion installation at Eyebeam (Art + Technology Center in New York City).
----------------
The Process
Carrie Mae creates hand-built wing structures out of wire tetrahedrons and fabric. Willpower codes 2 animations in Processing, which is an open-source programming language, development environment, and online community. He uses Leap Motion, which is a sensory technology, detecting human hands and fingers. He uses a Processing Library by onformative (a studio for generative design based in Berlin) called LeapMotionForProcessing to use Processing seemlessly with Leap Motion. Willpower attaches his interactive human generated animations to the Leap Motion sensor. They follow a person's hand movements in real-time and on key with accurate precision. The public interacts with the installation by activating the wings through their physical movements.
----------------
The Story
The animation displays beams of light representing solar neutrinos and the love we have access to at all times. Wings symbolize aspiration and ascension. The light is symbolic of angelic light coming from realms above, shining down to inspire and remind us that we are pure love in our hearts. The bubble eruptions represent both the thunderous fire energy residing inside our human forms and the Big Bang Theory that we are all becoming lighter and lighter each moment in time throughout our expansion into infinite space.
----------------
The Experience
Human beings generate the art on the angel wings by moving their hands. They become part of the art. They create the art. An ongoing 3D generative animation is mapped behind the wings. An interactive animation generated by people is mapped onto the wings. Without human movements, no animation is created on the tetrahedron angel wings. We include you to be part of the art because it is about us. It is about the interaction between the artists and the visitors. We communicate and transcend messages which are experienced beyond just looking at a piece by making you a co-creator of the piece. It is about us coming together and interacting in the space with 'others' we may have not engaged in a conversations with otherwise. It becomes an unique shared experience.

My Logo started with a tetrahedron in 2013. evolved into a merkaba in 2015.
In Egyptian, Mer means a Counter Rotating Field of Light.
Ka means Spirit.
Ba means Body.
it all happenened natuarally in the flow of creation.
Before Math as we know it is Sacred Geometry, which encapsulates life itself.
I was attracted to electronic toys as a child.
I disassembled them to understand them, and put them back together.
Math was the only class besides sports in which I had fun and where everything felt natural.
I made my own electric circuits during the weekend in Junior High.
I started writing code to create shapes at 12 years old.
It’s something that came naturally.
I was a science major in high school without trying to be one.
I’m don’t consider myself a mathmatician but someone with a love for the art.
Sacred Geometry makes Mathematical relationships visual and intuitively natural to understand.
The 2 triangular shapes are tetrahedrons.
When together in opposite directions, create what is called a ‘Merkaba’ or ‘Star Tetrahedron’.
The Merkaba is the basis of all biological lifeforms all across the Universe.
Enlightement is realising the interconnectivity of all that is.
It is when both sides of the brain work together as one.
I use Sacred Geometry because it represents the interconnectivity of the Universe.
We are all connected to one another, to the plants, animals, insects, the wind, water, fire, earth.
Everything in reality, that exists, manifested through the Sacred Geometry proportions.
Every single thing in creation.
Music, emotions, feelings, energy, plants, our bodies, everything is created out a unique sign
wave signatures, that when becoming physical comes out of a sacred geometry pattern.
It represents the physical life emerging out of the spiritual realm.
Crop circles which seem to be created by aliens, are pure sacred geometry.
They seem to communicate something specific based on mathematical relationships.
The Circles showing the mathematical relationships of the merkaba of my logo, represent the Seed of Life.
The Seed of Life is the center of the Flower of Life.
The Flower of Life represents all of life in the Universe.
I view the Merkabah as masculine energy due to its straight lines, and the Seed of Life represents
the feminine energy due to its circular form.
It holds the laws and proportions of everything in existence.
By Superimposing the Male Energy and the Female Energy together, we get the connection of the two.
We all have both energies within us.
When a man and a woman are in love, it creates the most powerful energy within the body.
Sacred Geometry shapes in architecture, sculptures and art have been all over the world for centuries.
The pyramids all over the world from Egypt to Central and South America are examples of this.

VISUAL COMPOSER PERFORMANCE
I perform my music with my interactive stage design.
It is best to experience my performance live.
I use Ableton Live with an M-Audio Microphone & Keyboard, and the keys of my MacBook Pro to make my tracks.
For this video, I am using an instrumental, but I am also a recording artist.
I make my music, write the lyrics, record my vocals, mix and master my albums.
I then create all the visuals.
I create every single aspect of my work to give you a spherical 4 dimensional experience of my Art.
To create the interactive animation, I write code in Processing (Open Source Programming Language based on Java).
In this video, my hands are controlling the visuals. For this, I use the Leap Motion sensor.
I use a Processing Library by onformative (a studio for generative design based in Berlin) called LeapMotionForProcessing to animate my visuals using Leap Motion.
The animation follows my hand movements in real-time and on key with accurate precision.
The visual is an animation within an animation with symmetry, which makes it a bit more challenging to control, making it even more fun.
Some of the visuals are generated by the music's decibel levels.
The main drive behind my work is PLAY. Play leads to fun, which leads to joy. Following our joy is the driving force in my life, and I want to share it with others. This is why I create interactive installations where people and children of different races and religions get to play and have loads of fun in a magical environment.
The VISUAL COMPOSER PERFORMANCE is a emotional piece with a dark track I made to expose the pain I feel everyday trying to survive in society. I perceive that the social system is set up by certain people to their benefit, while it is handicapping many others for whom it does not fit. I also see that many are unhappy with their jobs. Physicians and lawyers have high rates of suicide according to reports I have read. This is a time for us to question everything, and create a new social ecosystem that benefits all. Including the animals going instinct. I understand the Survival of The Fittest approach, but it does not have to be this way. I understand that nature is very violent and brutal, such as humans, but I also see a greater reality than this animalistic self-destroying one. It takes heart and courage to do what you love all day and all night all of the time forever. If you are willing to die for what you perceive as your purpose, then you are a Freedom Fighter… or simply, an Artist.

At least it is a vice if taken for raw willpower. As a virtue, it is a natural instinct bequeathed by nature itself. It is a yielding to life, to the Spirit operating in a hidden, undramatic way, and to the operation of grace. Even though nothing appears to be happening, something is. It means long, patient abiding in the poverty of the present moment, without making great claims concerning it. Something much bigger, indeed, is at work all the time. To take stock and measure it is to diminish it. To define it yields a fiction—it cannot be objectified. At best, I may name it, rather than define it, since a name comes closer to mystery, for who knows what is in a name?

...sometimes, if willpower and faith walk with you.
Guess that it was bound to happen
Was just a matter of time
But now I've come to my decision
And it's one of the painful kind
'Cause now it seems that you wanted a martyr
Just a regular guy wouldn't do
But baby I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
I really got to hand it to ya
'Cause girl you really tried
But for every time that we spent laughin'
There were two times that I cried
And you were tryin' to make me your martyr
And that's the one thing I just couldn't do
'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
'Cause tables are meant for turnin'
And people are bound to change
And bridges are meant for burnin'
When the people and memories they join aren't the same
Still I hope that you can find
Another who can take what I could not
He'll have to be a super guy
Or maybe a super god
'Cause I never was much of a martyr before
And I ain't bout to start nothin' new
And baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you

ASCENSION: An Interactive Installation
----------------
The Project
Willpower (William Ismael) + Carrie Mae Rose collaborate in the duo FLUID THUNDER for the interactive projection mapping of the tetrahedron winged computational fashion installation at Eyebeam (Art + Technology Center in New York City).
----------------
The Process
Carrie Mae creates hand-built wing structures out of wire tetrahedrons and fabric. Willpower codes 2 animations in Processing, which is an open-source programming language, development environment, and online community. He uses Leap Motion, which is a sensory technology, detecting human hands and fingers. He uses a Processing Library by onformative (a studio for generative design based in Berlin) called LeapMotionForProcessing to use Processing seemlessly with Leap Motion. Willpower attaches his interactive human generated animations to the Leap Motion sensor. They follow a person's hand movements in real-time and on key with accurate precision. The public interacts with the installation by activating the wings through their physical movements.
----------------
The Story
The animation displays beams of light representing solar neutrinos and the love we have access to at all times. Wings symbolize aspiration and ascension. The light is symbolic of angelic light coming from realms above, shining down to inspire and remind us that we are pure love in our hearts. The bubble eruptions represent both the thunderous fire energy residing inside our human forms and the Big Bang Theory that we are all becoming lighter and lighter each moment in time throughout our expansion into infinite space.
----------------
The Experience
Human beings generate the art on the angel wings by moving their hands. They become part of the art. They create the art. An ongoing 3D generative animation is mapped behind the wings.

I’m don’t consider myself a mathmatician but someone with a love for the art.
Sacred Geometry makes Mathematical relationships visual and intuitively natural to understand.
The 2 triangular shapes are tetrahedrons.
When together in opposite directions, create what is called a ‘Merkaba’ or ‘Star Tetrahedron’.
The Merkaba is the basis of all biological lifeforms all across the Universe.
Enlightement is realising the interconnectivity of all that is.
It is when both sides of the brain work together as one.
I use Sacred Geometry because it represents the interconnectivity of the Universe.
We are all connected to one another, to the plants, animals, insects, the wind, water, fire, earth.
Everything in reality, that exists, manifested through the Sacred Geometry proportions.
Every single thing in creation.
Music, emotions, feelings, energy, plants, our bodies, everything is created out a unique sign
wave signatures, that when becoming physical comes out of a sacred geometry pattern.
It represents the physical life emerging out of the spiritual realm.
Crop circles which seem to be created by aliens, are pure sacred geometry.
They seem to communicate something specific based on mathematical relationships.
The Circles showing the mathematical relationships of the merkaba of my logo, represent the Seed of Life.
The Seed of Life is the center of the Flower of Life.
The Flower of Life represents all of life in the Universe.
I view the Merkabah as masculine energy due to its straight lines, and the Seed of Life represents
the feminine energy due to its circular form.
It holds the laws and proportions of everything in existence.
By Superimposing the Male Energy and the Female Energy together, we get the connection of the two.
We all have both energies within us.
When a man and a woman are in love, it creates the most powerful energy within the body.
Sacred Geometry shapes in architecture, sculptures and art have been all over the world for centuries.
The pyramids all over the world from Egypt to Central and South America are examples of this.

ASCENSION: An Interactive Installation
----------------
The Project
Willpower (William Ismael) + Carrie Mae Rose collaborate in the duo FLUID THUNDER for the interactive projection mapping of the tetrahedron winged computational fashion installation at Eyebeam (Art + Technology Center in New York City).
----------------
The Process
Carrie Mae creates hand-built wing structures out of wire tetrahedrons and fabric. Willpower codes 2 animations in Processing, which is an open-source programming language, development environment, and online community. He uses Leap Motion, which is a sensory technology, detecting human hands and fingers. He uses a Processing Library by onformative (a studio for generative design based in Berlin) called LeapMotionForProcessing to use Processing seemlessly with Leap Motion. Willpower attaches his interactive human generated animations to the Leap Motion sensor. They follow a person's hand movements in real-time and on key with accurate precision. The public interacts with the installation by activating the wings through their physical movements.
----------------
The Story
The animation displays beams of light representing solar neutrinos and the love we have access to at all times. Wings symbolize aspiration and ascension. The light is symbolic of angelic light coming from realms above, shining down to inspire and remind us that we are pure love in our hearts. The bubble eruptions represent both the thunderous fire energy residing inside our human forms and the Big Bang Theory that we are all becoming lighter and lighter each moment in time throughout our expansion into infinite space.
----------------
The Experience
Human beings generate the art on the angel wings by moving their hands. They become part of the art. They create the art. An ongoing 3D generative animation is mapped behind the wings. An interactive animation generated by people is mapped onto the wings. Without human movements, no animation is created on the tetrahedron angel wings. We include you to be part of the art because it is about us. It is about the interaction between the artists and the visitors. We communicate and transcend messages which are experienced beyond just looking at a piece by making you a co-creator of the piece. It is about us coming together and interacting in the space with 'others' we may have not engaged in a conversations with otherwise. It becomes an unique shared experience.

I developed voice / sound generated Art. It reacts to the human voice. It reacts to sounds. It creates very abrupt graphic animated visuals. What is magical about it, is the size it holds in a space. The environment lives and is reactive to what is going on. It is a way of visualizing sound and the human voice.
My objectives with Voice Generated Graphics Interactive Projection Art:
– Performance Art
– Live Musical / Theatrical Performances
– Festivals
– Clubs / Tasteful Parties
– Interactive Rooms
– Galleries
– Museums
– Public Spaces
– Urban Development
– Retail
– Events
– Conventions
– Anywhere where humans interact
I create an infinite amount of composition by just speaking. The Future is Now.
Remember the days of creating vector art using a software? Well those days are over when you start creating graphics with your voice.
I want to create interactive installations or displayed on huge led screens for Music Festivals and Clubs with a cutting-edge. If you know anyone who may be interested, please send them this link and my portfolio page: willpowerstudios.com/portfolio

VISUAL COMPOSER PERFORMANCE
I perform my music with my interactive stage design.
It is best to experience my performance live.
I use Ableton Live with an M-Audio Microphone & Keyboard, and the keys of my MacBook Pro to make my tracks.
For this video, I am using an instrumental, but I am also a recording artist.
I make my music, write the lyrics, record my vocals, mix and master my albums.
I then create all the visuals.
I create every single aspect of my work to give you a spherical 4 dimensional experience of my Art.
To create the interactive animation, I write code in Processing (Open Source Programming Language based on Java).
In this video, my hands are controlling the visuals. For this, I use the Leap Motion sensor.
I use a Processing Library by onformative (a studio for generative design based in Berlin) called LeapMotionForProcessing to animate my visuals using Leap Motion.
The animation follows my hand movements in real-time and on key with accurate precision.
The visual is an animation within an animation with symmetry, which makes it a bit more challenging to control, making it even more fun.
Some of the visuals are generated by the music's decibel levels.
The main drive behind my work is PLAY. Play leads to fun, which leads to joy. Following our joy is the driving force in my life, and I want to share it with others. This is why I create interactive installations where people and children of different races and religions get to play and have loads of fun in a magical environment.
The VISUAL COMPOSER PERFORMANCE is a emotional piece with a dark track I made to expose the pain I feel everyday trying to survive in society. I perceive that the social system is set up by certain people to their benefit, while it is handicapping many others for whom it does not fit. I also see that many are unhappy with their jobs. Physicians and lawyers have high rates of suicide according to reports I have read. This is a time for us to question everything, and create a new social ecosystem that benefits all. Including the animals going instinct. I understand the Survival of The Fittest approach, but it does not have to be this way. I understand that nature is very violent and brutal, such as humans, but I also see a greater reality than this animalistic self-destroying one. It takes heart and courage to do what you love all day and all night all of the time forever. If you are willing to die for what you perceive as your purpose, then you are a Freedom Fighter… or simply, an Artist.

FRAMES TO MY MUSIC VIDEO: COME BACK SPARKIN
WATCH IT HERE:
COME BACK SPARKIN is the title of this song and its music video.
SPARKIN should be spelled SPARKING, but I chose to spell it the way I pronounce it.
This is how I create language.
I grew up in urban environments and slang talk has always been my preferred way of expressing myself.
I always loved the level of creativity that could be applied to a language, and the power slang has in societies.
To COME BACK SPARKIN is to come back from a difficult situation while creating something absolutely beautiful out of it.
It is the act of overcoming an obstacle or obstacles no matter the level of difficulty.
We have the power as SuperHumans to take advantage of every situation.
In this song, I first remind myself, that I am the one who chooses to feel down or up, no one else:
No matter what i go through, it can't get me down
Go ahead, take a shot at me. All you are going to do is fuel the beast. In other words, help me excel to the next level:
I'm a Warrior at heart, kick me down !
See what happens, I COME BACK SPARKIN
Some individuals do a whole lot of talking, but their actions do not match their blah blah blah.
Or they spend most of their time talking, while never truly accomplishing and doing something about what they are talking about:
While you're barkin, I move in action !
Realising that I have no one to talk to and spending my time by myself because no one around me is real enough, or I do not relate to them:
Very lonely, no one to talk to
I gain consciousness of my HumanPower , and I choose to Keep My Head Up as Tupac told us.
Keep My Head Up, as I walk through
Dark tunnels, with no light dude
I then realize who I am: I'm the Light Myself.
This is the path of the Warrior. Check out Warrior of Light by Paolo Coehlo if you don't understand this.
I then invite those that feel the way I do to listen to me because I live it like you, and I am uplifting myself.
So join me, and we can lift ourselves together.
Listen to my music, if you need help
Coz I give you energy
The Power and the Will to overcome your enemy
When I say enemy some may think that I am talking about a person outside of themselves, but I am not:
Which is the ego, your own self
Get deeper into your self. Understand that money is a tool, and not the answer to life:
Money is a distraction
The answer to all is within you:
The True Wealth is the Inner
I am not one of those people who thinks money is evil and who does not want money.
I'm a physical being with 5 physical senses, so I enjoy things money allows me to do.
I want to be clear that this is not an anti-money campaign, it is about understanding its role and purpose in our lives.
I do not claim to have the answers, what I do is invite others to my journey.
I recorded this song 3 years ago, and so, being that I have evolved a lot since, I chose to focus this music video on these lyrics and not the remainder of the song.
They no longer apply to who I am today like they did when I wrote them.
The Art Direction of this music video is a continuation of my project THE REBIRTH in which I created an imaginary world where the unreal becomes real.
The quality of this Music Video is very poor, the camera was old and busted, so this is what it is.
I think it's cool to have the quality this fucked up because it's such a huge contrast to crisp HD imagery.
I love crisp HD quality as well :)
Lyrics:
No matter what i go through, it can't get me down
I'm a Warrior at heart, kick me down !
See what happens, I COME BACK SPARKIN
While you're barkin, I move in action !
I'm on a mission !
Very lonely, no one to talk to
Keep My Head Up, as I walk through
Dark tunnels, with no light dude
Actually, I'm The Light Myself
Listen to my music, if you need help
Coz I give you energy
The Power and the Will to overcome your enemy
Which is the ego, your own self
Money is a distraction
The True Wealth is the Inner

When my daughter was born my mother often liked to quote, half smiling, with an almost devilish delight, her own mother: “You’ve gotta brake their wil!” (In Dutch: “Het willetje moet gebroken worden!”). By this she meant that raising a child is in fact a constant confrontation between what you as a parent want, and what the child wants. These needs and wishes often coïncide but more than often they don’t.
The fact that my mother said this is ironic, when you look at our family’s history. She was always far more relaxed, less strict, less rigid than my father (who was a pretty good father nonetheless). And in the end she sided with her children in a sort of rebellion against his strictness. [EDIT/INSERT: Don't get this wrong: my mother is the most loveable, funny, easy going parent a child could wish for...I adore her!! :D]
Can you recognize some of that same clash between parent and child in this photo (taken some 11 years ago). You gotta show em early who’s boss, don’t you?! :-)

Special Thanks to: Hackerloop
I developed voice / sound generated Art. It reacts to the human voice. It reacts to sounds. It creates very abrupt graphic animated visuals. What is magical about it, is the size it holds in a space. The environment lives and is reactive to what is going on. It is a way of visualizing sound and the human voice.
My objectives with Voice Generated Graphics Interactive Projection Art:
– Performance Art
– Live Musical / Theatrical Performances
– Festivals
– Clubs / Tasteful Parties
– Interactive Rooms
– Galleries
– Museums
– Public Spaces
– Urban Development
– Retail
– Events
– Conventions
– Anywhere where humans interact
I create an infinite amount of composition by just speaking. The Future is Now.

VISUAL COMPOSER PERFORMANCE
I perform my music with my interactive stage design.
It is best to experience my performance live.
I use Ableton Live with an M-Audio Microphone & Keyboard, and the keys of my MacBook Pro to make my tracks.
For this video, I am using an instrumental, but I am also a recording artist.
I make my music, write the lyrics, record my vocals, mix and master my albums.
I then create all the visuals.
I create every single aspect of my work to give you a spherical 4 dimensional experience of my Art.
To create the interactive animation, I write code in Processing (Open Source Programming Language based on Java).
In this video, my hands are controlling the visuals. For this, I use the Leap Motion sensor.
I use a Processing Library by onformative (a studio for generative design based in Berlin) called LeapMotionForProcessing to animate my visuals using Leap Motion.
The animation follows my hand movements in real-time and on key with accurate precision.
The visual is an animation within an animation with symmetry, which makes it a bit more challenging to control, making it even more fun.
Some of the visuals are generated by the music's decibel levels.
The main drive behind my work is PLAY. Play leads to fun, which leads to joy. Following our joy is the driving force in my life, and I want to share it with others. This is why I create interactive installations where people and children of different races and religions get to play and have loads of fun in a magical environment.
The VISUAL COMPOSER PERFORMANCE is a emotional piece with a dark track I made to expose the pain I feel everyday trying to survive in society. I perceive that the social system is set up by certain people to their benefit, while it is handicapping many others for whom it does not fit. I also see that many are unhappy with their jobs. Physicians and lawyers have high rates of suicide according to reports I have read. This is a time for us to question everything, and create a new social ecosystem that benefits all. Including the animals going instinct. I understand the Survival of The Fittest approach, but it does not have to be this way. I understand that nature is very violent and brutal, such as humans, but I also see a greater reality than this animalistic self-destroying one. It takes heart and courage to do what you love all day and all night all of the time forever. If you are willing to die for what you perceive as your purpose, then you are a Freedom Fighter… or simply, an Artist.
Thank you for watching this video and possibly sharing it.
Love Universal to All

My Logo started with a tetrahedron in 2013. evolved into a merkaba in 2015.
In Egyptian, Mer means a Counter Rotating Field of Light.
Ka means Spirit.
Ba means Body.
it all happenened natuarally in the flow of creation.
Before Math as we know it is Sacred Geometry, which encapsulates life itself.
I was attracted to electronic toys as a child.
I disassembled them to understand them, and put them back together.
Math was the only class besides sports in which I had fun and where everything felt natural.
I made my own electric circuits during the weekend in Junior High.
I started writing code to create shapes at 12 years old.
It’s something that came naturally.
I was a science major in high school without trying to be one.
I’m don’t consider myself a mathmatician but someone with a love for the art.
Sacred Geometry makes Mathematical relationships visual and intuitively natural to understand.
The 2 triangular shapes are tetrahedrons.
When together in opposite directions, create what is called a ‘Merkaba’ or ‘Star Tetrahedron’.
The Merkaba is the basis of all biological lifeforms all across the Universe.
Enlightement is realising the interconnectivity of all that is.
It is when both sides of the brain work together as one.
I use Sacred Geometry because it represents the interconnectivity of the Universe.
We are all connected to one another, to the plants, animals, insects, the wind, water, fire, earth.
Everything in reality, that exists, manifested through the Sacred Geometry proportions.
Every single thing in creation.
Music, emotions, feelings, energy, plants, our bodies, everything is created out a unique sign
wave signatures, that when becoming physical comes out of a sacred geometry pattern.
It represents the physical life emerging out of the spiritual realm.
Crop circles which seem to be created by aliens, are pure sacred geometry.
They seem to communicate something specific based on mathematical relationships.
The Circles showing the mathematical relationships of the merkaba of my logo, represent the Seed of Life.
The Seed of Life is the center of the Flower of Life.
The Flower of Life represents all of life in the Universe.
I view the Merkabah as masculine energy due to its straight lines, and the Seed of Life represents
the feminine energy due to its circular form.
It holds the laws and proportions of everything in existence.
By Superimposing the Male Energy and the Female Energy together, we get the connection of the two.
We all have both energies within us.
When a man and a woman are in love, it creates the most powerful energy within the body.
Sacred Geometry shapes in architecture, sculptures and art have been all over the world for centuries.
The pyramids all over the world from Egypt to Central and South America are examples of this.

ASCENSION: An Interactive Installation
----------------
The Project
Willpower (William Ismael) + Carrie Mae Rose collaborate in the duo FLUID THUNDER for the interactive projection mapping of the tetrahedron winged computational fashion installation at Eyebeam (Art + Technology Center in New York City).
----------------
The Process
Carrie Mae creates hand-built wing structures out of wire tetrahedrons and fabric. Willpower codes 2 animations in Processing, which is an open-source programming language, development environment, and online community. He uses Leap Motion, which is a sensory technology, detecting human hands and fingers. He uses a Processing Library by onformative (a studio for generative design based in Berlin) called LeapMotionForProcessing to use Processing seemlessly with Leap Motion. Willpower attaches his interactive human generated animations to the Leap Motion sensor. They follow a person's hand movements in real-time and on key with accurate precision. The public interacts with the installation by activating the wings through their physical movements.
----------------
The Story
The animation displays beams of light representing solar neutrinos and the love we have access to at all times. Wings symbolize aspiration and ascension. The light is symbolic of angelic light coming from realms above, shining down to inspire and remind us that we are pure love in our hearts. The bubble eruptions represent both the thunderous fire energy residing inside our human forms and the Big Bang Theory that we are all becoming lighter and lighter each moment in time throughout our expansion into infinite space.
----------------
The Experience
Human beings generate the art on the angel wings by moving their hands. They become part of the art. They create the art. An ongoing 3D generative animation is mapped behind the wings. An interactive animation generated by people is mapped onto the wings. Without human movements, no animation is created on the tetrahedron angel wings. We include you to be part of the art because it is about us. It is about the interaction between the artists and the visitors. We communicate and transcend messages which are experienced beyond just looking at a piece by making you a co-creator of the piece. It is about us coming together and interacting in the space with 'others' we may have not engaged in a conversations with otherwise. It becomes an unique shared experience.

FRAMES TO MY MUSIC VIDEO: COME BACK SPARKIN
WATCH IT HERE:
COME BACK SPARKIN is the title of this song and its music video.
SPARKIN should be spelled SPARKING, but I chose to spell it the way I pronounce it.
This is how I create language.
I grew up in urban environments and slang talk has always been my preferred way of expressing myself.
I always loved the level of creativity that could be applied to a language, and the power slang has in societies.
To COME BACK SPARKIN is to come back from a difficult situation while creating something absolutely beautiful out of it.
It is the act of overcoming an obstacle or obstacles no matter the level of difficulty.
We have the power as SuperHumans to take advantage of every situation.
In this song, I first remind myself, that I am the one who chooses to feel down or up, no one else:
No matter what i go through, it can't get me down
Go ahead, take a shot at me. All you are going to do is fuel the beast. In other words, help me excel to the next level:
I'm a Warrior at heart, kick me down !
See what happens, I COME BACK SPARKIN
Some individuals do a whole lot of talking, but their actions do not match their blah blah blah.
Or they spend most of their time talking, while never truly accomplishing and doing something about what they are talking about:
While you're barkin, I move in action !
Realising that I have no one to talk to and spending my time by myself because no one around me is real enough, or I do not relate to them:
Very lonely, no one to talk to
I gain consciousness of my HumanPower , and I choose to Keep My Head Up as Tupac told us.
Keep My Head Up, as I walk through
Dark tunnels, with no light dude
I then realize who I am: I'm the Light Myself.
This is the path of the Warrior. Check out Warrior of Light by Paolo Coehlo if you don't understand this.
I then invite those that feel the way I do to listen to me because I live it like you, and I am uplifting myself.
So join me, and we can lift ourselves together.
Listen to my music, if you need help
Coz I give you energy
The Power and the Will to overcome your enemy
When I say enemy some may think that I am talking about a person outside of themselves, but I am not:
Which is the ego, your own self
Get deeper into your self. Understand that money is a tool, and not the answer to life:
Money is a distraction
The answer to all is within you:
The True Wealth is the Inner
I am not one of those people who thinks money is evil and who does not want money.
I'm a physical being with 5 physical senses, so I enjoy things money allows me to do.
I want to be clear that this is not an anti-money campaign, it is about understanding its role and purpose in our lives.
I do not claim to have the answers, what I do is invite others to my journey.
I recorded this song 3 years ago, and so, being that I have evolved a lot since, I chose to focus this music video on these lyrics and not the remainder of the song.
They no longer apply to who I am today like they did when I wrote them.
The Art Direction of this music video is a continuation of my project THE REBIRTH in which I created an imaginary world where the unreal becomes real.
The quality of this Music Video is very poor, the camera was old and busted, so this is what it is.
I think it's cool to have the quality this fucked up because it's such a huge contrast to crisp HD imagery.
I love crisp HD quality as well :)
Lyrics:
No matter what i go through, it can't get me down
I'm a Warrior at heart, kick me down !
See what happens, I COME BACK SPARKIN
While you're barkin, I move in action !
I'm on a mission !
Very lonely, no one to talk to
Keep My Head Up, as I walk through
Dark tunnels, with no light dude
Actually, I'm The Light Myself
Listen to my music, if you need help
Coz I give you energy
The Power and the Will to overcome your enemy
Which is the ego, your own self
Money is a distraction
The True Wealth is the Inner
